Ryan Family Gas Station & Auto Repair, family-owned since 1948, sits on the very outskirts of Silent Pines. These days it looks run down and ready to fall apart, but the gas is cheap and Jacob Ryan gives fair repair estimates. Much of its business comes from being the last stop between town and either Merrywood or the campgrounds around Lake Glass, as well as the family-run convenience store and the fact that it is the only repair shop in Silent Pines that can accommodate RVs.

The old and abandoned Silent Pines Cemetery sits at the end of a dirt road just off the turnpike and is a highlight of the Historical Society’s tour. Devil’s Wood has grown up around it since it has fallen into disuse in the last century, but it was once the main graveyard for the town; some of the markers and mausoleums date back to the early 1700s. Each of the six founding families lays claim to a plot at each point of the star-shaped outer wall. These days, however, even the “Big Six” choose the modern Janice Berkshire Memorial Cemetery across town to lay their loved ones to rest.

Nestled away on one of the less-used park hiking trails, Bayer Bridge is the favorite meeting spot for hopeless romantics. Crossing over one of the tributaries of the river and surrounded by thick pines, it makes a beautiful backdrop for couples to have a private rendezvous. Older generations still call it the Kissing Bridge and like to spread various local lore about a kiss on the bridge being good (or bad) luck depending on who tells the story.

Within easy drive of the Whelan Farm and nestled in a friendlier patch of the Devil’s Wood is a small lake called Lake Glass. Hiking trails, picnic areas, and fishing spots surround the lake and make it a popular local relaxation spot.
On the side of the lake opposite town, the silhouette of Camp Glass can be seen along the shore.

Once upon a time, almost every kid in Silent Pines spent at least one summer at Camp Glass. That was before the summer camp closed down under mysterious circumstances ten years ago. The cabins still stand empty across the lake, and sometimes teenagers break in for parties or on dares. Of course, local legend claims the campground is haunted by the ghost of a former camper, so only the bravest trespass on the abandoned grounds.
